Title: Lab pups on craigslist
Post by: EastWaViking on June 02, 2009, 09:34:23 PM: I just saw this on craiglist-spokane. May be worth a look if you are in the market for a lab pup.

That makes sense. Never thought about that. I guess it makes even more sense seeing that they also won't let you sell a gun on there.

This one did. She pre-sold 9 pups at $600 each.... The dog had 11 and the lady's husband was shipping off to Iraq, so they needed to get rid of the other 2 quickly. Their pups have won all sorts of field trials and dog show awards. Yes, when I saw it posted on craigslist I thought, "this has got to be a puppy mill or something", but it was a very legit breeder in a though situation that worked out great for me.
